Dreaming new worlds

Goethe-Institut's Dreaming New Worlds project was designed to provide a space to investigate the new frontier posed by the prevalence of emerging technologies in the world ad the role which the creative sector plays in shaping it. Africa’s young population is expanding exponentially (by 2050 half of the people on this continent will be younger than twenty-five) and the creative sector is expanding right along with it.

Kultursymposium Weimar
Trust for an inclusive Nigeria

For this year's Kultursymposium <<A Matter of Trust>>, we performed the play, "The Gods Are Strange" by Bukola Ayinde, in two communities here in Nigeria, namely the Corona Secondary School in Agbara and in Jos at the Jardin reading garden.

Connecting the Dots

The "Connecting the Dots" project (2023-2025) aims at facilitating community engagement with public museums in Nigeria through the establishment of a young scholars museum fellowship program and a youth education program. It is implemented by the Goethe-Institut Nigeria together with The Ford Foundation. Up to six Nigerian museums will participate in the program over a period of two years.
